Parky made its debut in Montreal at the World Parkinson Congress 2013. Selling theses stuffed toy raccoons was a “last minute” fundraising idea, leaving no time to create and advertise a Parkyfundraising campaign. Much to everyone’s surprise and delight, Parky was a hit! 750 raccoons were sold; $7,500 was raised for Travel Grants to the upcoming World Parkinson Congress 2016 taking place in Portland, Oregon, September 20 – 23, 2016. With just 495 days to go until opening day — Parkyis back and with your generous support, together you’ll be paying it forward to Travel Grants for World Parkinson Congress 2019. So click here to buy your Parky!
